Summary
This grant opportunity is open to nonprofit organizations (or fiscal‑sponsored groups) supporting a wide range of community needs, addressing social, economic, health, environmental, and civic challenges.
Funding is available across a broad set of community‑oriented “focus areas.” These include support for workforce development — such as job training and skill building — and initiatives that create new employment opportunities or help people gain sustainable livelihoods. The foundation is also interested in strengthening families and providing services that support childcare, family stability, and access to social services.
Another core area involves health and well‑being: grants may support mental health services, wellness programs, and substance‑abuse support. Educational enrichment and youth development — especially programs that enhance children’s academic, creative, or social growth — are also priorities. For those concerned with environmental sustainability and natural resources, the foundation supports projects aimed at preserving waterways, protecting local natural assets, or improving public access to safe, healthy environments.
Ensuring food access, combating poverty, supporting senior citizens and their caregivers, and building vibrant, safe neighborhoods are also among the foundation’s target areas. The foundation tends to value collaborative, community‑rooted efforts that address systemic problems and create long‑lasting positive effects — often through partnerships among nonprofits, public‑service agencies, and community stakeholders.
Funding may go toward program support, community services, outreach efforts, and — where appropriate — capital or infrastructure projects (though larger capital requests may require prior discussion). The opportunity is particularly suited for established charitable nonprofits aiming to deliver meaningful community benefit through thoughtful, sustainable initiatives.
